paradise and the cultural heartland.

has been geologically exciting for millennia. See evidence of the awe-inspiring power of nature at its most

of this region.
Stroll through the streets of Rotorua, voted New Zealand's most beautiful city six times, and instantly feel

extensive Maori heritage collections. Be enriched by the Spirit of the Maori people and learn why the Arawa,
